There are enhanced part pay with Avios offers running throughout the sale period. The discount varies by route and amount of Avios used, the smaller the discount the better value per Avios point generally speaking. To work out what value you are getting per Avios point simply divide the discount by the amount of Avios, we at Points Uncovered tend to aim for 1p+ for Avios points. If you want to work out your own valuation of Avios see our article here – https://pointsuncovered.com/avios/how-to-work-out-avios-point-value/
